Bruce Castle Park (also known as Lordship House)

Introduction

The layout today has little changed from the park's opening in 1892 and many of the trees date from the 19th century, with an ancient oak reputedly over 400 years old. Bruce Castle became a museum in 1906 and continues to house the local history collection.
